Remember those pictures of Berlin been bombed to bits in 1945? I don't think that the comparison with Gaza eighty years later doesn't hold up. What do you think?

I would venture to say that the destruction was more thorough and more indiscriminate in Germany during WW2, especially in the fire-stormed cities of Hamburg and Dresden.
Here is a picture of Cologne, where it seems the only building left standing was the cathedral, either by a miracle, or for a more mundane reason that it was used as an orientation landmark by the bombers.
@Thinkerbell Now the question wasn't about those German cities. It was about Berlin because, as you might know, the cities that you mentioned there were selected targets. They were amongst other criteria still towns with a lot of wooden houses. That makes those cities totally not comparable
